I’m going to talk about two problems that people might encounter when playing basketball in Taiwan in this article. The reason I decided to write this down is because these problems sometimes happen on me.

Most people in Taiwan play basketball in outdoor courts, and one of the biggest problem is there are no places for players to take a shower. After playing basketball, some people might not return home immediately to take a shower, instead, they might go to other places such as restaurant. Moving around with sweat will definitely feel uncomfortable, so that’s why I came up with some possible solutions.

  1. Create an attachment for water bottles to allow you to shower with the water. The size of the attachment can be adjust to fit different size of water bottles. By using this attachment, people can take a shower after playing basketball, and all they have to do is to bring a new set of clothes and a towel.
  2. Set up an Airbrib for for showers, people can earn some money by offering people who just finished playing basketball to take a shower. And players are allow to schedule for a limited amount of time to take a shower in their houses.

There aren’t too many outdoor basketball courts in Taiwan, or the courts are just too remote where people usually can’t find. These might be problems for people who want to play basketball but can’t find a proper place, so I thought of few ways that can possibly solve these problem.

Possible ways to solve the problem of there aren’t many outdoor basketball court:

  1. Create a portable hoop that can attach to anything is the first solution to this problem. A lightweight hoop that can attach to almost everything. It used something similar as vacuum chuck to stick on things. If there’s a park or a field, you can simply attach it to a wall and start playing.
  2. The second solution is connected to the first one, which is to set up a club or a class that teaches people how to make a portable hoop.

Possible ways to solve the problem of couldn’t find courts:

  1. The solution for this problem is to create an APP that shows not only the location of basketball court, but also the routes to the court. It would be helpful to people that can’t find a place to play basketball. On the other hand, there will also be a webcam at every court, so people are able to know which court is available during the time.

These are some problems people who play outdoor basketball in Taiwan might face, including me, that’s why I thought of some ways that might solve these problems.
